Has anyone disabled this as a restriction and had ill effects?

We'd prefer that our users not install beta versions of iOS or Chinese app-piracy profiles, but I don't want to disrupt people if there's a legitimate use case for this being allowed.

I know in the past some parental monitoring apps did so through the use of profiles but I don't know if this is still the case.

I have the same question for similar reasons.

We have this restriction in place on all of our iOS devices (approx 1300) and have not run into any issues. We've been utilizing it for a few years and it has helped to block VPN apps from installing config profiles on devices. It's worked well, no complaints thusfar :)

Previous workplace disabled this and we never hit an issue. I think there was only 1 or 2 users that wanted to use it, if it was a valid reason we just excluded them from the scope of the restriction.
